Delta may block online check-in when your trip needs a document or identity review, so plan for a counter check and arrive with extra time. You hit “Check in,” the app spins, then nothing: no boarding pass, no clear reason. It’s stressful because international flights run on hard cutoffs, and a blocked check-in can steal
